Kids are making me watch The Little Mermaid remake.
Damn, this is some bad shit. A ship that hits a floating rock, rescued dude doesn't breathe for hours and suddenly coughs up water...I know it's a kids movie, but fuck this is dumb. Songs suck too. Edit: Do you think they thought through the implications of a brown man having a daughter of every colour?

Elemental was better than I expected. Very sappy and heavy handed with the message, but entertaining nonetheless.

The Marvels is Disney's most expensive phase 5 movie at $270 million.

As much as both of those films look like fun, I'm getting sick of the cliched action-scene-in-time-with-the-music trailers.

Anyone seen The Creator?
Trailers look really good and it seems to be getting reviewed well.

Right now everybody and their brother seems to be coming down hard against AI. So I’m curious.

John Wick 4 was more John Wick, but probably the last one - although its clearly setting itself up for the John Wick Cinematic Universe spin offs and eventual (soft?) reboot.
Like the other John Wicks, some cool set pieces, some cool characters whose raison d'etre is to be a cool character, some sheer fucking nonsense of a plot (which I'm now pretty sure is just Vampire: the Masquerade, but with organised crime instead of Vampires) and the ongoing theme that violence leads to more violence. Probably my favourite part was John Wick gets a new suit that looks like his old suit, but this one is made of Kevlar so he keeps doing dracula poses with his jacket because thats how kevlar works and it stops him getting shot in the face. Also a sequence where he has to get to the top of a long flight of stairs on a deadline, and gets pretty much to the top, then gets full body checked and the camera just watches him literally roll alllllllllll the way back down to the bottom again. Also a cool section with a shotgun with incendiary bullets as a small part of a larger set piece. Bill Skarsgard is pretty good as the new asshole in charge who probably wouldnt end up sparking off a bunch of revenge killings if he wasnt such an asshole, in true John Wick fashion, Donnie Yens great as "blind" assassin and foil / obvious parallel to John Wick not-zatoichi, and oh shit Clancy Browns here too. Excellent Gun-Fu, they shoulda had carrie ann moss cameo in one of these things before wrapping it all up though.

The bulletproof suit really ruined the action in that movie. It was a fun throwaway idea when it was introduced in JW3, but it was used so much in 4 that him running around like he was hiding from the paparazzi wrecked the gunfight choreography.

He was already effectively bullet proof anyway. Why the need to explicitly create a suit?

The Wicker Man. Saw this years ago cos it used to be on telly all the time but I’d forgotten most of it except for the end. The new 4k restore is on sale on Amazon so we watched it last night. The first thing that stands out is how funny it is, then there’s the music and creepy villagers. The moment Woodward got off his plane I thought fuck that. I would’ve immediately turned round and got out. Anyway the film well deserves it’s classic horror tag. Edward Woodward being a staunch Christian. Christopher Lee in drag. Britt Ekland naked. I haven’t seen the Nic Cage version but apparently it’s absolute dog shit. I’m tempted to get it just to see
